Instead of the usual pictures of me these are of some of the spring flowers in our garden. One or two of the blogs I follow have done this so I thought it would be a nice idea to do it as well. Obviously the flowers are ones that I haven't nibbled yet...

Some more pictures from Sunday. This Country Park has been built on the site of an old Coal Mine. You can see the winding wheel that was used when it was working, I think its on top of the old capped off shaft.

This is me with Chip crossing a bridge on the way to the hill inside the Country Park.

We went to Donisthorpe today which is on the border of Leicestershire & Derbyshire. Quite a long drive but when we were there I had a nice long walk in the Woodland Park.

This is me having a fast zoom down the hill.

And this is me looking at an odd ladder stile, people can climb over these when there is a fence in the way. Obviously the fence was a bit taller when it was built as now I am able to just hop over it.

Yesterday a button was accidentally pushed on the camera to produce this odd effect. Its called Colour Accent. Me in Black and White with a colourful background. I think it looks cool.The lead is a gentle leader called a Gencon which is to stop me pulling, which I sometimes try to do...

We have just got back from a flyball demonstration at Kensington Gardens in London. FourPaws were doing the demonstration at the Egg and Bone Charity Event. Breeze and Chip were taking part and as usual I was watching them.This is a picture of me with the Peter Pan Statue in the Park. The spot was chosen by Peter Pan's author, J.M. Barrie who lived nearby. It appeared on May the 1st in 1912.

The other picture is of us walking in the park before the event. We got there very early so we could park easily.I met loads of different dogs including a new sort I hadn't seen before called a Rhodesian Ridgeback I barked at him which surprised everyone. (apart from me...)

About Me

What are English Shepherds ?

English Shepherds are descended from the dogs settlers took with them to North America to work on their farms from England and lowland Scotland. They were bred to be all round farm and family dogs rather than having just one job to do.

They have been recognized as a distinct breed by the UKC in the USA, since the 1930's.

Wizz is one of the dogs from the first litter to be born in England, she was born on the 3rd of November 2008. Wizz's parents Adam & Eve have been brought to the UK from the US by Jackie to reintroduce the breed to this country.
